[QUOTE="Northeast Stinger, post: 896929, member: 1640"] Yep. In all seriousness, people who don’t like committees are people who’ve never served on a good one. The hardest committees to chair are ones in which most of the members have never served on a good working committee. Those members just don’t want to be there and can sabotage things, often in passive aggressive ways, making everyone else’s experience miserable. Winning those members over takes patient, masterful leadership. But a poor committee chair is like a poor coach, they will never get the level of buy-in that is needed from everyone to make the process work. But a good committee is a joy to behold and one of the more satisfying experiences you can have in life. The easiest analogy is a good committee is like a good football team. Everyone has a role to play, each team member brings different strengths, if one player has a set back the rest of the team rushes in to support by giving extra effort, and the final output is the very definition of teamwork -with the total output being greater than the sum of the parts. I could write pages about what happens in dysfunctional committees. They can be like a badly coached team in which everything that can go wrong is an on-going likelihood and no matter how the PR people spin it, the stated purpose of the committee never happens.
